Creating a Shipment Online

UPS Internet Shipping is a fast, convenient way to schedule a shipment. You can easily compare service options and create shipping labels. When you login, you 'll even be able to set preferences and see a history of all your shipments.

Before you begin your online shipment, make sure you're able to answer these questions:

• What are the shipper's and the recipient's address and telephone number?
• Will you use your own packaging or a UPS box or envelope?
• How fast do you need your package shipped and how would you like to pay?
• Do you need to add a shipment reference? If you're shipping multiple packages to the same address, it's helpful to add a shipment reference for each so you can distinguish between packages. Shipment reference numbers can contain a mix of numbers and letters, but can be as straightforward as "Cookies for Dad."
• Would you like to schedule a pickup, give your package to your UPS driver, or drop off your package at a UPS Location?

Knowing the answers ahead of time will make creating a shipment simple. From UPS Internet Shipping, you'll be able to select any of the available shipping options at the best price for you. Once you complete the online form, you can print out a label and affix it to your package. Then you can request a pickup or bring your package to a UPS location.
